The Shahnameh, or The Book of Kings, stands as a monumental poem crafted around 1000 C.E. by the illustrious Persian poet Ferdowsi. This epic narrates the legendary tales of mythical kings and heroes from ancient Persia, alongside historical episodes from the Sasanian era. Revered as Irans national epic, its captivating stories once echoed throughout regions from Central Asia to Anatolia, and from India to the Caucasus. Helen Zimmerns retelling in English prose brings to life some of the most celebrated legends of the Shahnameh. She aims to capture the originals naïve, archaic essence by employing the simple language reminiscent of Shakespeares age and the English Bible, thereby transporting readers away from the modern worlds pace. - Summary by KazbekCopyright Legends & Fairy Tales Arte Ciencias Sociales Historia y Crítica Literaria Mundial
